December.
What's your point?
Literally with 13 goals he became the highest goalscorer in a single season by a Portuguese player. It's hardly something to shout about.
If anything, Pauleta is probably gutted he didn't play in Serie A.
Luis Nazario da Ronaldo was a giant. Unstoppable.
Between Messi and CR7 I think the Argentine has more talent while the Portuguese has more dedication to work. Messi is a champion but he "works" only with Barcelona, in his environment: at the World Cup with Tevez, Dybala, Aguero, Di Maria etc. he did not do much. Cristiano Ronaldo won with Real Madrid and dragged Portugal to the victory of a European championship. CR7 has more charisma. Juventus in an already winning group has raised the bar ( level).He presented himself with humility but with the desire to win a novice.
This year to prepare for the best he has agreed with the coach of Portugal not to go national: he is a workaholic.
CR7, as you insist on calling him is a glory hunting, vein, cunt.
His only interest is himself and he is not a team player.
Look at his reactions here
The fact that in the field is a cry in my opinion you're right: it's an aspect that I never liked.
I've always criticized it. But I must admit that he is a great professional and this is enough for me.
Fair enough.
For me he is a great player but a cunt of a human being.
Another genius finish from Quagliarella last week:
Love this one too - Nicola Zaniolo (moved to Roma as part of the Nainggolan deal - very highly thought of kid):
The state of those shorts Higuain is wearing!! (I guess that's Milan's away kit?)Piatek from Genoa to Milan
Higuain from Milan to Chelsea
Giochi Preziosi is a play on words with reference to the price of these players (expensive toys) and to the president of Genoa (Preziosi) who owns the Giochi Giochi Preziosi toy company.
This Higuain deal to Chelsea I simply don't understand, surely he's well past his best. He has always been temperamental and inconsistent too, not to mention has issues with his weight and fitness.
That's their away kit yeah.
And I agree on Higuain to Chelsea. Very non Chelsea transfer. They try to avoid signing players past 30 but I guess Sarri forced this one
Higuain will go to Chelsea because of Sarri: at Naples he scored 36 goals in Serie A. He's the one who wanted it.
Morata at Atletico Madrid worries me about the CL. It is not a phenomenon but has a champion's shots.
Yeah, I know but that was 2.5 seasons ago. Clearly he knows him and trusts him to play that he's not getting from Giroud or Morata but it's a big gamble and a short term one too.
I agree. Higuain is a great player but to be a champion he has to be less emotional. Juventus bought it to complete the attack but in two years has never fully convinced. In fact, this year he was sent away first to Milan (for the Bonucci operation, but he found an open yard) and now at Chelsea. If he plays quietly in PL he could be deadly, but in European cups it is not his ground.
